On one hand I count the reasons I could stay with you And hold you close to me all night long So many lovers' games I love to play with you On that hand there's no reason why it's wrong But on the other hand there's a golden band To remind me of someone who would not understand On the one hand I could stay and be your loving man But the reason I must go is on the other hand In your arms I feel the passions I thought have died When I looked into your eyes I found myself And when I first kissed your lips I felt so alive I've got to hand it to you girl, you're something else But on the other hand there's a golden band To remind me of someone who would not understand On the one hand I could stay and be your loving man But the reason I must go is on the other hand But on the other hand there's a golden band To remind me of someone who would not understand On the one hand I could stay and be your loving man But the reason I must go is on the other hand Yeah, the reason I must go is on the other hand Yeah, the reason I must go is on the other hand On the other hand there's a golden band To remind me of someone who would not understand On the one hand I could stay and be your loving man But the reason I must go is on the other hand
